at this point i thought maybe just the pilot bearing had the outside ring broke off some how, but once i got the clutch off i had all this fall down on the ground

all this came from the shop that had it over winter deciding not to put the bolts that hold the trans to the cross member back in and only finger tightening the rear drive shaft bolts. oh and i think it killed my $1200 twin disc clutch but i will have to send it into McCleod to see if they can save it or not
